How do I create an account on Researchfish?
If you are an award holder, it is only possible to create a Researchfish account by accepting an invitation from your funding organisation. This article covers how to create an account from the invitation e-mail and how to request to have the invite resent, or notify the funder if your email is incorrect or needs to be changed.
Creating an Account (for Researchers)
- Locate the Researchfish invitation e-mail
- Click the link in the e-mail and you will be prompted to create a new account.
- You may be asked for an invitation code, which can be found in your invitation e-mail.
- Once you have created your account, the award will then be associated with it, and you will be able to create and attribute outputs.
Resend Invite or Notify Funder of New Email
If you have not already received an e-mail from your funder, you can request to resend your invitation or notify your funder if the email associated with your account is incorrect
- Go to our Invitation Help page
- Select your funding organisation and enter your award reference
If your funding organisation does not appear in the list, then that funder does not use Researchfish for reporting and you may wish to contact them directly.
- You will then be shown a partial hint of the e-mail address your funder has on record for you.
- If you have access to that e-mail address then simply choose to resend the invitation.
- If you do not have access to that e-mail address, then there will be an option to contact your funder and request they update the e-mail address they have on record for you. They can then send an invitation to your new address.
